Les Petites Excuses

Not only were the flowers beautiful, EXACTLY as I wanted them and ON TIME... the owner Anais is a doll. She gave us a very fair price for what we wanted (Calla Lillies in NOVEMBER - VERY EXPENSIVE usually) and the arrangements we're adorable. We wanted it very simple - and that's exactly what we got. She is a visionary - and produces beautiful arrangements to your tailoring. It is not a big shop - however she has a studio in her basement to make the arrangements (check out the website) basically meaning the cost of renting the space is not included in your price (the store markups). The ONLY one thing I didn't like (my fault I guess) is that we got them the night before to avoid stress... which the flowers were fine overnight... but the instructions were to leave them in the water. Well - come wedding day - they were wet and drippy. Not a good call when you are walking in a white dress. Other than my advice to remove them from the water perhapse the morning OF the ceremony - les petites excuses were a little surprise and a wonderful hidden gem!
